They always cause trouble.

It doesn't matter if I use a scene or a keyframe. It still flickers.

I have some code to press the ESC key and send it to a different scene. The problem with it is I need it to freeze on the pause menu after one click, but if you hold it down it switches between prev. frame and the pause menu. I want to know how to pause it on the pause menu with one click and go to the previous frame with another. Here is my code.

this.onEnterFrame=function(){
if (Key.isDown(Key.ESCAPE)) {
		
if(!gamePaused){
			gotoAndStop("Pause Menu", 1);
}
}
};

and for the pause menu code-

this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
	if (Key.isDown(Key.ESCAPE))
	{
		prevScene();
	}
};

That's a bit vague and unclear. Can you explain what you're actually trying to do?

I'm trying to make a listener to select the text. I would like to be able to select the text and then click buy or sell. Like this.

how to make an array that holds selected text?

Add a click listener to it. When clicked toggle a variable that defines if it is selected or not.
Or add/remove an item that should be bought to an array that specifies what's selected.

There are many ways to do this. You should specify more clearly what you want.

Sorry. I know it's not very clear. Like in this picture.
You're able to select the text and click buy, sell, etc..

I need to know how to make text selectable for a game I am making. Not just highlight, but to be able to select the text and click the buy button.

Thanks
